Modeling Incremental Language Comprehension in the Brain with Combinatory Categorial Grammar

no code implementations NAACL (CMCL) 2021 Miloš Stanojević, Shohini Bhattasali, Donald Dunagan, Luca Campanelli, Mark Steedman, Jonathan Brennan, John Hale

Hierarchical sentence structure plays a role in word-by-word human sentence comprehension, but it remains unclear how best to characterize this structure and unknown how exactly it would be recognized in a step-by-step process model.

Quantifying Discourse Support for Omitted Pronouns

no code implementations COLING (CRAC) 2022 Shulin Zhang, Jixing Li, John Hale

Pro-drop is commonly seen in many languages, but its discourse motivations have not been well characterized.

Neural Language Models are not Born Equal to Fit Brain Data, but Training Helps

no code implementations7 Jul 2022 Alexandre Pasquiou, Yair Lakretz, John Hale, Bertrand Thirion, Christophe Pallier

Neural Language Models (NLMs) have made tremendous advances during the last years, achieving impressive performance on various linguistic tasks.

The Little Prince in 26 Languages: Towards a Multilingual Neuro-Cognitive Corpus

no code implementations LREC 2020 Sabrina Stehwien, Lena Henke, John Hale, Jonathan Brennan, Lars Meyer

The planned release of the LPPC combines linguistic and EEG data for many languages using fully automatic methods, and thus constitutes a readily extendable resource that supports cross-linguistic and cross-disciplinary research.

The Alice Datasets: fMRI \& EEG Observations of Natural Language Comprehension

no code implementations LREC 2020 Shohini Bhattasali, Jonathan Brennan, Wen-Ming Luh, Berta Franzluebbers, John Hale

The Alice Datasets are a set of datasets based on magnetic resonance data and electrophysiological data, collected while participants heard a story in English.

Processing MWEs: Neurocognitive Bases of Verbal MWEs and Lexical Cohesiveness within MWEs

no code implementations COLING 2018 Shohini Bhattasali, Murielle Fabre, John Hale

Multiword expressions have posed a challenge in the past for computational linguistics since they comprise a heterogeneous family of word clusters and are difficult to detect in natural language data.

LSTMs Can Learn Syntax-Sensitive Dependencies Well, But Modeling Structure Makes Them Better

no code implementations ACL 2018 Adhiguna Kuncoro, Chris Dyer, John Hale, Dani Yogatama, Stephen Clark, Phil Blunsom

Language exhibits hierarchical structure, but recent work using a subject-verb agreement diagnostic argued that state-of-the-art language models, LSTMs, fail to learn long-range syntax sensitive dependencies.

Modeling Brain Activity Associated with Pronoun Resolution in English and Chinese

no code implementations WS 2018 Jixing Li, Murielle Fabre, Wen-Ming Luh, John Hale

Typological differences between English and Chinese suggest stronger reliance on salience of the antecedent during pronoun resolution in Chinese.

Entropy Reduction correlates with temporal lobe activity

no code implementations WS 2017 Matthew Nelson, Stanislas Dehaene, Christophe Pallier, John Hale

Using the Entropy Reduction incremental complexity metric, we relate high gamma power signals from the brains of epileptic patients to incremental stages of syntactic analysis in English and French.

Temporal Lobes as Combinatory Engines for both Form and Meaning

no code implementations WS 2016 Jixing Li, Jonathan Brennan, Adam Mahar, John Hale

The relative contributions of meaning and form to sentence processing remains an outstanding issue across the language sciences.
